Bush's war on the disloyal press climaxes in a trial on classified information.

I expect that those five members of the Court in 1971warning the press that the First Amendment is not a permanent shield in time of warmay well be remembered now by Chief Justice John Roberts, Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia, and Clarence Thomas.

As for Anthony Kennedywho could be the pivotal vote against defendants Rose and Weissman, the press, and the publicwe should know his vote in a year or more. There is also the possibility that before oral arguments at the Supreme Court, Bush may have another seat to fill. These are indeed historic, fateful times.
